2. 1. Structure of Zero Pressure Gradient High Reynolds Number Turbulent Boundary Layers

   Author : Murat Tutkun; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fourier decomposition.; proper orthogonal decomposition; large scale structures; Turbulent boundary layers; zero pressure gradient; wind tunnel; calibration; cross-correlations; hot-wire; two-point correlations; high Reynolds number;

   Abstract : This thesis presents part of the large research program funded by the European Commission calledWallturb: A European synergy for the assessment of wall turbulence. The main aim of this researchprogram is to create new experimental and numerical databases on the characteristics of turbulent wall-bounded flows, especially turbulent boundary layers. READ MORE

5. 3. Experimental studies in jet flows and zero pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers

   Author : Ramis Örlü; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Tim B. Nickels; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Axisymmetric jet; swirling jet; coaxial jet; heated jet; zero pressuregradient turbulent boundary layer; wall-bounded turbulent flows; overlap region; passive scalar mixing; hot-wire anemometry; spatial resolution.; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with the description and development of two classical turbulent shear flows, namely free jet and flat plate turbulent boundary layer flows. In both cases new experimental data has been obtained and in the latter case comparisons are also made with data obtained from data bases, both of experimental and numerical origin. READ MORE

6. 4. Experimental study on turbulent boundary-layer flows with wall transpiration

   Author : Marco Ferro; Jens Fransson; Bengt Fallenius; Joseph Klewicki; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Turbulent boundary layer; boundary-layer suction; boundary-layer blowing; wall-bounded turbulent flows; self-sustained turbulence; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Abstract : Wall transpiration, in the form of wall-normal suction or blowing through a permeable wall, is a relatively simple and effective technique to control the behaviour of a boundary layer. For its potential applications for laminar-turbulent transition and separation delay (suction) or for turbulent drag reduction and thermal protection (blowing), wall transpiration has over the past decades been the topic of a significant amount of studies.

7. 5. Turbulent Boundary Layer Separation and Control

   Author : Ola Lögdberg; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Jens Fransson; Guido Buresti; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flow control; adverse pressure gradient APG ; flow separation; vortex generators; jet vortex generators; pulsed jet vortex generators; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

   Abstract : Boundary layer separation is an unwanted phenomenon in most technical applications, as for instance on airplane wings, ground vehicles and in internal flow systems. If separation occurs, it causes loss of lift, higher drag and energy losses. It is thus essential to develop methods to eliminate or delay separation. READ MORE
